Just a comment really to see other people's thoughts on it but I really wish SH5 played as well as SH4.

I've been a big fan of SH5 and more recently Wolves of Steel mod but I only just tried SH4 within the last few days, I've struggled a bit to adjust to the graphics (I think it's the anti-aliasing or lack thereof) but jeez does it play better. I'm running TMO with RSRD and they're great. The management of the boat, specifically the crew side of things adds another level which would be awesome in SH5. The time compression works really well and for whatever reason manual targeting seems more accurate. It's just a tad easier to use the same techniques for both games but end up with a more reliable solution in SH4.

I just want to take pretty much the entire mechanics of SH4 and insert them into the SH5 setting and engine in combination with the ability to walk around the boat. That crew management and your office back in port are such nice touches.

SH5 was my first sub game (if you don't count Wolfpack when I was a kid), I'm glad I bothered to check out SH4.
